WIPO Published a New Guide: Securing Loans with Your IP Assets

World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) published a brand-new guide that aims to assist businesses and intellectual property (IP) owners in leveraging IP to secure loans. It explains how IP can support debt financing, prepares users for lender discussions, and offers insights into the lending process. It also covers post-loan procedures, providing practical checklists and templates to help businesses and IP owners maximise the value of their intangible assets and secure favourable financing terms.

The comprehensive Guide covers four main sections: 

1.Preparation: Getting your IP portfolio in order
2.Application: The lending process overview
3.Decision: Deal structuring and terms
4.Implementation: What happens after the deal
